Ingredients:

6 very ripe bananas

1 1/4 cups sugar

2 cups flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mash bananas and mix well with the sugar.

In a separate bowl, combine the remaining dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt).

Mix the dry ingredients into the banana and sugar mixture. Add vanilla and mix well.

Coat a loaf pan with non-fat baking spray and pour in batter.

Bake for 1 hour. Check periodically by inserting a toothpick. It should come out clean when inserted into the center of the bread.
